1. Christians don't create

1. Christians don't create anything original. They only mimic the world around them.

Ever wondered if the pitch sheets for Christian fiction/movies/TV/media are pre-printed "Just like (fill in the blank with current trendy hit), except CHRISTIAN!" (Except for the ones that say "Just like Left Behind, except...")

Years ago in SF lit fandom, we had a saying "It's gotta be Christian. Look how shoddy it is."

2. Christians get offended at everything.

As in "Professional Weaker Brethren", the Christian version of the Tyranny of the Perpetually/Easily Offended.

3. Christians are just waiting to be "raptured up" and couldn’t care less about this world.

Think about what future Christians project: Seven Years of Antichrist Dystopia, then The End. Dark Future, followed by No Future.

Funny thing is, the future tends to happen whether you're involved in it or not. And when the future happens regardless, those who have No Future find themselves Left Behind.
